Toy Fair kicks off on February 12 in New York, where Skylanders has been featured in the past. Not all toys for the game’s initial release have hit store shelves yet, so an announcement at Toy Fair next month might be premature.

Additionally, there’s a Twitter account called @skylandersgiant that’s retweeting stories about the domain name registration. It’s unclear if it’s an official Activision teaser or someone just fanning the flames, however.

My first wind Skylander should be showing up in the mail tomorrow....they're pretty hard to get a hold of, guys. All the stores near me keep getting restocked and immediately sold out. I was at the Walmart last week where I found an Empire of Ice set (so cool! pun intended!), and there were parents and kids there excitedly yelling about them being in stock. I'm a little ashamed to admit I was kind of peeved, because I wanted them to keep that info on the DL.

Honestly, what with their death grip on Transformers, X-Men and Spider-Man licenses (or the Marvel comics license -- whatever they used to get Marvel Ultimate Alliance made. I know Sega has the Marvel movie license), I'm waiting for Activision to convert these franchises into "action figurable" franchises like Skylanders proves can work. Imagine getting new characters for Fall of Cybertron by going out and physically buying $10 "Ultra Armor Optimus Prime" or whatever.

I just hope that any new game will be compatible with the figures already released (though I doubt that will happen). I've already sunk a bunch of money into this game, and my kids have already beaten it.

I've been playing with my 9 year old, trying my damnedest to collect all the characters for her. The most I have found at a store was 4 characters (I had to buy them) other then that the reports have said that usually they are gone within a half hour of getting them on the shelf.

Hrm maybe skylanders giants are just going to be giant (and real action figure) versions of the 30+ existing skylanders, that or plush versions which might be interesting to see. Either way expecting to see more of Drobot & others in the future as it is a fun game.
